Alliance Jiu Jitsu London is the team's first European flagship school, at The Boulevard, Imperial Wharf (SW6 2UB), on the Thames between Fulham and Chelsea. It opened in January 2024 and is co-owned by Joao Borges and Alliance co-founder Fábio Gurgel.

Head coach Henrique Rezende is a black belt, and black belt Renata Marinho also teaches. The timetable runs six days a week. It has separate beginner and intermediate classes, no-gi, women-only classes, private lessons, and kids classes split by age band from 4 years up.
